  • First clean up! Check https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/40442/which-installed-software-packages-use-the-most-disk-space-on-debian and see which large packages you can remove. 2) Use the SDcard for moving large, but less system-critical directories like /var/cache and /usr/local/share to the SDcard and mount that directories to their correct place via /etc/fstab. This way apt can work normally without caring for special paths, and your system will not die on SDcard problems.
